Daniel,

You might need to press the escape key before using 'i' to insert while in VI. Sometimes it makes it easier if you write the policy in a text editor outside of EXOS, then past it in VI editor. If using VI, press escape once again to exit the input mode. It also helps to press escape before pasting into VI.

Hi,

Just checking, you are into the text editor when trying to make the change, right?

# vi Regla_acceso.pol

or

# edit policy Regla_acceso

from there, you should be able to modify your file with the vi command listed.

Hi Daniel,

I want to confirm the suggestion from Stephane.

The provided output shows that you are running the "show policy ", which only prints the policy to the screen.

To edit the policy use the vi editor with the command: "vi " or the command "edit policy ".

I agree with Dorian, you have to edit the policy wit the vi editor 

Since this thread has been bumped, it should also be mentioned that you'll need to refresh the policy after editing to make it take effect.
See this article for more information: Policy is not taking effect after changes have been made to the existing policy file
